Chapter 259: CHAPTER 259 – Talk with an Otherworlder 2.
Luna and Noctura shared a glance.
The silence was quite long this time.
The other side seemed to be busy in their thoughts while Alex was not even here.
*Step**Step*….
A sound of feet moving on the floor was heard causing Luna and Noctura to turn their heads away from the shining device only to catch the sight of Alex walking toward them with a cup of ice cream.
It was handmade, or more like Alex-made, and it was very tasty.
Just looking at it made Luna and Noctura's mouth water.
But they shook their heads.
'What the hell are you doing???'
Luna questioned with a bewildered expression.
This was not the time for all of that.
When she saw Alex getting up and leaving Noctura on the sofa with the device still on, Luna thought that maybe something important came to his mind but….
'He wanted to eat ice cream?? We are talking to some freaking emperor or whatever, and he wants to eat ice crea-'
Luna continued staring at Alex with a dumbfounded expression, but then Alex took a scoop of the ice cream and pushed it toward Luna.
Looking at that spoonful of ice cream, that creamy texture attacked her eyes while the icy and sweet smell did the same to her smell buds.
All of her thoughts about Alex not being serious and whatnot were thrown away as her lips moved closer to the spoon.
Alex, who saw all of that, smiled meaningfully, nodding his head repeatedly.
'No words yet?'
As Luna licked every last bit of cream on the spoon, Alex looked at the drooling Noctura and lip-synced the question.
Noctura momentarily peeled her eyes off from the ice cream and shook her head at Alex's question, indicating that there had been no words from the other side yet.
Alex just chuckled as he saw Noctura's eyes moving back to the cup of ice cream.
He glanced at Luna, only to find her now enjoying the taste of ice cream with her eyes closed and back resting on the sofa.
He shook his head and moved to the spot where he was sitting.
Noctura jumped up on his shoulder as if that place belonged to her while her eyes stayed fixed on the ice cream cup.
Alex took one last bite from the cup before he placed the cup on the table and gestured for Noctura to go on.
Noctura's eyes brightened and she jumped right on the ice cream, taking a large scoop of it with a single lick.
But as the ice touched her lips her taste buds jumped in happiness, forcing her to savor the taste of the ice cream, and not gulp it down in one go.
Alex chuckled at her comical reactions before he looked back at the device.
*Cough*
Alex coughed to get the other party's attention.
"Wake up, man.
I don't have all day long to wait for your words, I'm a busy man, unlike some lord who sits around and orders his people to even wash his ass after he's done shitting."
*Knock**Knock*
Alex even knocked the device as if trying to wake the guy up if he was sleeping.
The man on the other side, who had finally calmed down had a vein popping up on his forehead the moment he heard Alex's words. Chapter Find:
*Crack*
"I wish you were right in front of me right now, I would have shown you the consequences of your impudence."
A growl is heard along with a cracking sound.
But Alex just smiled.
"You might get the chance sooner than you think, oh great…."
Alex extended his last words, creating suspense, and the guy on the other side smiled as he heard those words.
He thought that Alex had finally learned his lesson and started showing him the respect he deserved, but….
"Sleeper, I wish you could get a good sleep, and be able to satisfy your wives-"
*Boom*
That was the last thing Alex heard before the connection was cut.
"What?"
Alex turned toward Luna who was staring at him with a blank gaze.
The booming sound caused her to focus back on the conversation, but when she realized what happened, she couldn't help but turn speechless.
"You do know that you destroyed our only medium of contact with that world, right?"
Alex started at Luna with a stunned expression before he spoke with unsurety.
"Yes?"
"Sigh…."
A long sigh left Luna's lips when she heard his words.
But Alex just shrugged off her concern.
"We can just go to that world, why are you so worried about a single device that could've helped us in getting some misleading information?"
Alex questioned with a perplexed expression.
Why did they have to use this device anyway?
Whatever information they will get would probably be the things that the other side wants them to get.
It can be the right thing or the wrong one, who was going to confirm that?
That was what Alex thought, but his words caused both Luna and Noctura who were eating the ice cream to momentarily pause.
Noctura had sharp hearing, so even if she was immersed in something the noise in the surroundings won't get muffled for her.
So, she heard Alex's each with the same clarity as Luna's, and her reason for freezing was the same as Luna's.
Shock.
"What?!"
Luna was the first to react and even Noctura, although reluctantly, still left the ice cream aside and looked at Alex questioningly.
"Hm? Did I say something wrong??"
Alex soon realized that he had yet to tell anyone about the fact that he could jump from one world to another.
He had to explain some things to Luna and Noctura once, and when the others returned, Alex had to do it again, but yeah, everyone realized that they might get a chance to travel to another world with living beings.
....................
On the other side of the call.
*Inhale*
A man with a large muscular build and long golden hair flowing back, reaching his waist, took a deep breath with his eyes closed.
*Exhale*
He breathed out the air that he took in, but that breath caused the cave he was in to shake.
He was sitting on a large throne made of stone.
It didn't look anything special, but it did look strong. If it didn't have a crack on its left armrest, then it would've looked as new as it could be.
*Baam**Crack*
The cracks only worsened when the guy opened his golden eyes filled with arrogance and rage as he smashed his left fist on the armrest.
"How dare he…..."
He growled, but as he heard a hurried footstep moving toward his cave, he looked up to see his most loyal subordinate standing at the entrance with his head bowed, waiting for his permission.
